Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine is calling on Congress to re-examine some federal railroad regulations after the derailment of a train carrying hazardous materials in his state triggered an explosion that sent toxic chemicals into the air and nearby waterways.
Dr. Bruce T. Vanderhoff, director of the Ohio Department of Health, said that while it was possible residents were smelling some of the chemicals at low levels and experiencing common symptoms, but that “air sampling in that area really is not pointing toward an air source for this.”
The Ohio Department of Natural Resources said that while 3,500 fish were killed in the immediate aftermath of the derailment, “there doesn't appear to be any increase in the fish or aquatic creatures killed since the first couple days of the derailment.
“I think perhaps [Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg] has dropped the ball here. Let's do an investigation, let's have the NTSB get a report out and find out how we can make things better and I feel that not getting feedback from the Department of Transportation and even the administration is a bit frustrating.”
, “I continue to be concerned about the impacts of the Feb 3 train derailment near East Palestine, OH, and the effects on families in the ten days since their lives were upended through no fault of their own.”writing Monday night Weaver said one change that would help is a mandated improvement to electronic braking systems versus the current mechanical air brakes that date back to the 19th century. “I think the government should require them to do better, let's make things safe for the public and the workers.”
